Some of you may think you know me. I’m just another name in a long list of kidnapping victims, the only pattern of which is that they disappeared from conventions after talking to an unidentified man dressed as the merchant from Resident Evil 4. No matter how many people he’s seemingly abducted, police and security have never caught him, or found any of his victims. I’m just another casualty of a world gone insane, fallen through the cracks.
At first, my only company was a Chocobo whose egg I’d been forced to buy from him. But it turns out I’m not alone in this world after all. This world is inhabited by ponies who can talk and have their own society. Some of them have supposedly been chosen for a game along with myself and the other kidnapped humans, though the details on this game are few and far between.
And we all have superpowers of our own for no adequately explained reason.
I’m starting to wonder if wandering alone for eternity with Karin wouldn’t have been better.

It’s back and better than ever (which isn’t saying a whole lot.) Taking a few old ideas of mine and combining them, this is a Displaced story with (some) humanised ponies and other things that some people might well object to and thumbs-down without even reading it.
Based on the gallery of this guy on Deviantart.
Too many copyrighted properties are about to be involved, so I’ll just leave it that all properties whose characters and concepts are used belong to their respective owners, and the only thing I own is this story, which I don’t intend to profit from.
Rated T for occasional swearing and moderately frequent (though not particularly brutal) violence.
I'm imagining your chocobo as red for some reason. Your version of he merchant is different than others I've read, though I haven't been keeping up on the Displaced shared universe stuff. Looking forward to seeing more of this.
6497264 Maybe it's because I'm not writing in an accent, or maybe it's because he's still an influence on the plot after the convention, I don't know. And I don't think I've mentioned what colour Karin is; she is meant to be yellow, though.
Hmmm maybe each of the mane 6 could have their own human.... as for which ones their supossed to be ......maybe rainbow dash could have the flash from the justice leauge cartoon or maybe fluttershys partner coud have the arrow since their both archers (refering to fluttershy in friendship games or maybe rarity could have anakin skywalker maybe trixie could have gandalf the white or celestia could have wonder woman or perhaps luna could have sailormoon just a thought
6497730 I had an entirely different plot in mind, I'm afraid.
Seems like an interesting story. Your grammar and pacing are good for now. The story is easy to read and I can easily understand what is going on in a scene. It'll be fun see how the Princesses react to him changing ponies into humans.
6502674 Oh, it's not going to be the Princesses who are the first to react to it.
And they're on the guest list themselves.
Better. Much better spelling wise. Story is still holding my interest. Keep up the good work.
Keep it up....will we see celestia or Luna at all ?
6506741 Yes. And yes.
Great chapter.
first final fantasy now tekken what else will be add to this crossover? nice story btw
6515437 I've got plans, don't worry.
Will we see more of "link"?
6548962 Yes.
Just from the description, this is sounding a lot like The World Ends With You.
At this point, I can make a video game reference for practically anything.
7092789 I dunno. I never really saw the connection myself. It's Final Fantasy more than anything, hence Soren's initial admission.
7093644 While I haven't started reading this one, the comments about pairing people up and the "Things to Do in Ponyville When You're Dead" arc also fit in with the TWEWY reference. In that game, Players, people who have died, play the Reaper's game to try to get a second chance at life. In order to survive against the game's monsters and the Reapers, Players must form pacts, partnering up so they can use the powers granted to them by the Underground, the plane of the afterlife.
7093907 I played it. The title was actually more a reference to the film, Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead. The Game here has nothing to do with the Reapers' Game. Soren and the others aren't dead.
Also, the final chapter of the arc is going up soon.
7093938 Well, now that I've finished Knightmares, I might give this one a read.
y so long 4 update?
7094142 Not so much writer's block as writer's trainwreck. I get too many ideas at once, and they all pile up in my head until I can't write any of them at all.
7094292 well you know what they say about train wrecks you know you shouldnt look at them but you just cant look away
